3.3.2 IR ILLUMINATOR OPERATIONS
CAUTION:
When operating the device in extremely dark conditions, the light from the unit’s IR illuminator
will be invisible to the unaided eye. However, the light can be detected by other NVDs.
NOTE:
The IR illuminator is designed to provide additional illumination (when needed) while viewing
scenes or targets from a short distance (up to 3m).
1. To activate the IR illuminator, turn the unit on. Turn the function switch from ON to the IR position.
A red light will appear in the eyepiece to indicate that the IR illuminator is operating.
3.3.3 OPERATING UNDER CHANGING LIGHT CONDITIONS
If the ambient light level exceeds the limit of 100-300 lx for more than 10 s, the Nyx-7 PRO automatic
protective system will shut off the intensifier tube. If a mission must be carried out in changing light
conditions, the user can shut down the protective system manually by closing the photoreceiver.
CAUTION:
DO NOT forget to open the photoreceiver after completing your mission.
